Is it based on a Fiat 1400? And is that tiny badge by Ghia?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

It's a Fiat, but not a 1400 and not by Ghia.  All badges look the same at that distance!

Must be a Fiat 1900. Let's try Bertone.

1900 is correct, but not by Bertone.

It's only banned if you search BY image; i.e. if you feed the image in and it tells you which websites that image features on.  No skill involved there at all...

Oh right. I can be naive when it comes to the obvious. It's a 1953 Fiat 1900 bodied by Frua. Can't tell you the place, but I'm guessing Geneva Motor Show or Turin Show.

That's it, yes.
I didn't ask for the place so you get the point anyway!
